Just thought I would bring up this old topic as I am about to kill my plant.
Plant is now 5.5 weeks old, and showing signs of male. This plant was my main one (white widow), the other I have is doing well but its bagseed.
I always aimed to keep it small and bushy but I had no idea how bushy it would get, it was pretty amazing.
Overall I grew two very healthy plants with only 160W of fluorescent light. My growing space was only 3X2X2 feet and I managed to keep my main plant to under 10 inches. Used slow release general purpose nute pellets, and 2L bottle of Yeast and sugar for Some extra CO2 and 50% soil 50% cocopeat for medium.
Despite not being about to show nice juicy thick buds, I am really happy with my first indoor grow result. The balls broke my heart when I saw them, but I'll start some new seeds going tonight, and hopefully in 5 weeks time I'll have better news. This site has been a great help in getting me started, now I all good to go with my next attempt.
